"What would you rather have in your house — roaches or a tarantula?”
I think I'd take the roaches, Jacob!

While its fangs can leave “a little puncture wound,” the tarantula’s bite packs as much venom as a honeybee’s sting, he said. Nope. The honeybee sting hurts a lot more. I speak from experience.

Tarantulas also come out in droves near Henrietta, Texas, in the Spring. Henrietta is in North Texas. They search out warm places like roads in the sun when they come out. I love blowing by them driving fast and watching them in my rear view mirror tumble like paper.

I guess these beat the Palmetto bugs we used to get every full moon in Honolulu... swarms of them... their tenatacles are as long as their bodies... and their bodies are about 3 inches long...

They are great deep fried. Dip them in some egg and roll them in corn meal/chili powder and toss them into hot peanut oil. Tastes great with 2 quarts of Jim Beam (before you eat them).
